Definitions

  • This invention relates to a carding machine for processing textile fibers such as cotton, chemical fibers or the like and includes travelling flats composed of flat bars provided with a clothing. Between the points of the flat bar clothings and the points of the carding cylinder clothing a clearance is maintained through which the fiber material passes as it is being treated by the clothings. Opposite ends of the flat bars glide on convex slide guides each formed of a flexible element positioned on a convex surface of the associated flexible bend.
  • the distance between the convex outer surface of the slide guide on the one hand and the concave inner surface of the slide guide and the convex outer surface of the flexible bend on the other hand is constant along the circumferential direction of the carding cylinder.
  • the convex outer surface and the concave inner surface of the slide guide and the convex outer surface of the flexible bend are arranged concentrically to the rotary axis of the main carding cylinder.
  • the flexible bend has a recess, for example, a groove in which the slide guide is stationarily supported.
  • the position of the flexible bend is altered by adjusting a plurality of setscrews, to thus change the position of the slide guide.
  • This operation results in a raising or lowering of the flat bars, thus changing the distance between the points of the flat bar clothings, on the one hand, and the points of the carding cylinder clothing, on the other hand.
  • Such an adjusting process of the flexible bend is, however, circumstantial. It is a further disadvantage of the conventional arrangement that the geometry of the flexible bend depends from the number of the setscrews.
  • the carding machine has to be at a standstill and lateral carding elements such as drive, suction arrangement and flat bars have to be removed and subsequently reassembled.
  • lateral carding elements such as drive, suction arrangement and flat bars have to be removed and subsequently reassembled.
  • Such an operation involves a significant outlay of the assembling operation.
  • the carding machine includes a main carding cylinder having a cylinder axis and a cylinder clothing; and traveling flats cooperating with the main carding cylinder along a circumferential length portion thereof.
  • the traveling flats include a plurality of flat bars each having a flat bar clothing cooperating with the cylinder clothing; and a drive for moving the flat bars in unison in an endless path having a working leg in which the flat bar clothings cooperate with the cylinder clothing and a return leg.
  • the working leg extends circumferentially about a portion of the main carding cylinder.
  • the carding machine further has a flexible bend having a convex surface and being supported on the machine frame laterally of the main carding cylinder; and a slide guide supported on the flexible bend.
  • the slide guide has a convex surface supporting the flat bars for sliding motion thereon along the working leg.
  • the radial position of the convex surface of the slide guide relative to the cylinder axis determines the radial clothing point distance between the clothing points of the flat bar clothings and the clothing points of the cylinder clothing.
  • an adjusting device is provided for radially displacing the slide guide such that the radial clothing point distance remains uniform at all locations along the working leg.
  • the carding intensity may be varied automatically during operation as a function of technological magnitudes such as nep number and/or fiber damage (fiber shortening). It is an additional particular advantage of the invention that after adjustment of the slide guide the distance between the clothing points of the flats and the clothing points of the cylinder remain identical as viewed circumferentially, whereby a significant improvement of the produced sliver is achieved.
  • the slide guide is flexible to ensure that the arcuate shape of the outer surface of the slide guide is adaptable so that in this manner the uniformity of the distance between the flats clothing and the cylinder clothing is securely maintained at all locations over the circumference.
  • the adjustment may be effected continuously during operation, either automatically or by actuating a push-button, thus eliminating the need for any time-consuming assembling operation or down time.
  • the convex outer surface of the slide guide--on which the flat bar heads are supported-- is, on either side of the carding machine, shifted in a radial direction concentrically to the axis of the carding cylinder by camming action of elements which are displaced relative to one another in the circumferential direction, parallel to the cylinder surface. In this manner the radial position of the flat bar-supporting slide guide may be changed by infinitely small increments.
  • the distance between the convex outer surface and the concave inner surface of the slide guide changes as viewed in a circumferential direction and, at the same time, the distance between the convex supporting surface of the flexible bend (on which the slide guide is positioned) and the cylinder axis changes with an opposite sign as viewed in the same circumferential direction so that the sum of the two distances at all locations along the circumference is constant.
  • a relative displacement between the slide guide and the flexible bend in the circumferential direction causes, by camming action, a radial shift of the slide guide and thus the radial position of the flat bars and hence the distance between the points of the flat bar clothings and the points of the cylinder clothing is altered.
  • an intermediate member is provided between the slide guide and the supporting surface of the flexible bend, and the distance between the convex outer surface and the concave inner surface of the intermediate member changes as viewed in a circumferential direction and, at the same time, the distance between the convex supporting surface of the flexible bend (on which the intermediate member is positioned) and the cylinder axis changes with an opposite sign as viewed in the same circumferential direction so that the sum of the two distances at all locations along the circumference is constant.
  • a relative displacement between the intermediate member and the flexible bend in the circumferential direction causes, by camming action, a radial shift of the slide guide and thus the radial position of the flat bars and hence the distance between the points of the flat bar clothings and the points of the cylinder clothing is altered.
  • an intermediate member is provided between the slide guide and the supporting surface of the flexible bend, and the distance between the convex outer surface and the concave inner surface of the slide guide changes as viewed in a circumferential direction and, at the same time, the distance between the convex supporting surface of the intermediate member (on which the slide guide is positioned) and the cylinder axis changes with an opposite sign as viewed in the same circumferential direction so that the sum of the two distances at all locations along the circumference is constant.
  • a relative displacement between the intermediate member and the slide guide in the circumferential direction causes, by camming action, a radial shift of the slide guide and thus the radial position of the flat bars and hence the distance between the points of the flat bar clothings and the points of the cylinder clothing is altered.
  • first and second superposed intermediate members are provided between the slide guide and the supporting surface of the flexible bend, and the distance between the convex outer surface and the convex inner surface of the first intermediate member changes in the circumferential direction and the distance between the convex outer surface of the second intermediate member and the axis of the carding cylinder changes with an opposite sign in the same circumferential direction, so that the sum of both distances at all locations is constant along the circumference.
  • a relative displacement between the first and second intermediate members causes, by camming action, a radial shift of the slide guide and thus the radial position of the flat bars and hence the distance between the points of the flat bar clothings and the points of the cylinder clothing is altered.
  • the intermediate member or members are formed by a flexible element, such as a metal ribbon (for example, a steel ribbon).
  • the slide guide and/or the intermediate member or members are made of a synthetic material which has a low coefficient of friction and which is reinforced, for example, by glass fibers, carbon fibers or the like.
